My Favorite Things Friday

On Twitter, there's Follow Friday and today, I'm kicking off my Favorite Things Friday. Next week, malls across America will be mobbed with crazed shoppers and I won't be one of them. I'm planning to give "gifts" from the Oxfam catalog...and shop online. Here's what I'm craving:

4505 Meats "Pork, the noun, not the verb" poster. Buy online here.






































Michael Recchiuti's Burnt Caramel Sundae Kit. Buy online here.





















Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution Cookbook (I've given 2 as presents already!) Buy online here.













Chronicle Books' French General: Paper Paperie for the hostess with the mostess. Buy online here.

Soul Food Farm Benefit Recap

Hey y'all,

Wow, what a fantastic night we had on Sunday! Remembering rule #1, we'd love to give thanks to Susa Hart again for opening up her lovely home, the musicians (Jonathan Alford, Hugo Wainzinger and Jard Davis) who donated their time to keep us entertained, and of course, all of you who stayed out late on a Sunday night to eat for good on behalf of Soul Food Farm.

Check out Dominique Channell's write-up of the event at the Examiner.com (follow her @oakland_eats) and Brittany Piehl's photos (follow her blog, Appeale). See the full set of photos at Britt's Flickr page and video on my Flickr page. Keep in touch
at our Facebook Fan page and we'll see you soon at the next Canvas event.


Cheers,
Vera @ the Ghet

Yay! We can now watch it online! I was interviewed, but the girl next to me kept talking too loud so my comments didn't make it. I've got a few mum scenes nonetheless. :)

We had a blast at Susa's loft in Emeryville last night. Here's a sneak preview of what you missed, unless you were there!
